Research Project Abstract

Being a dyslexic student I find myself always wanting to teach others about my disability, so when they come across another dyslexic student that have a better idea in how to help them succeed. There are so many ways I can go about involving dyslexia into my research for this project, but one idea seems to stand out the most allowing me to form a question to start with. Can providing Computer Science to dyslexic students in high school affect college enrollment? Let us develop a structure for dyslexic students to further the education after high school in high demanding fields. It is time to build the confidence of students who are smart but may have a hard time showing it. Dyslexia in computer science.
